Orpington Lodge Chicken Coop Kit with Expandable Run Options

The Orpington Lodge Chicken Coop Kit is a compact, raised chicken coop designed for 4–6 chickens, with optional run extensions and the ability to expand over time.

Some coops look fine online—but start to sag, lose airflow, or become difficult to clean after one season.

This coop is built to avoid those problems, with reinforced nesting boxes, better ventilation, and a layout that works for daily use.

It’s a practical setup for backyard chicken keeping—whether you're starting with a small flock or planning to grow.

Because capacity isn’t just a number—it’s how the coop actually functions for your birds day to day.

Flexible Setup Options (Start Small or Build It Out)

You’re not locked into one setup.

This coop is available as:

• Coop only
• Coop with the Original Run
• Coop with the Walk-In Run
• Coop with the Brahma Walk-In Run

You can also purchase additional runs or hen houses separately, making it easy to expand later.

Each setup includes:

• A coop-to-run access door
• An additional door at the end of the run
• Doors under the nesting boxes and hen house for easier cleaning and access

Built for Real Backyard Use

This isn’t just about fitting chickens inside a structure.

It’s about how it performs over time—and how it feels to use every day.

What you’ll notice right away:

• Two 30-inch roosting rods and one 33-inch roosting rod are included in the hen house
• Chickens share nesting boxes and roost side by side naturally
• Thick nesting box dividers that hold their shape
• Prop-open locking vent windows
• Additional vents throughout the coop for airflow
• Doors placed where you actually need them

It’s designed for real use—not just appearance.

Covered Run Roof Option

Add a solid roof over your run to give your flock a dry, shaded space year-round. This metal roof helps block rain, snow, and harsh sun, so your chickens can stay comfortable even when the weather turns. It also keeps bedding drier and reduces mud inside the run, making daily upkeep easier. Built from powder-coated steel, it’s designed to hold up over time without constant maintenance. Add the roof to your covered run.

Reinforced Nesting Box Support (Why It Matters)

Most coops attach nesting boxes directly to the side wall.

Over time, that weight causes sagging.

This design prevents that.

The run panels extend underneath the nesting boxes, supporting them from below while also creating additional usable run space.

It’s one of those small details that makes a big difference long-term.

Interior Space and Layout

Chickens use the coop for sleeping and laying—not for spending the entire day inside.

What matters most is roost space and access to nesting boxes.

Interior Layout

• 55" wide x 29" long hen house
• Two 30" roosting rods and one 33" roosting rod
• Shared nesting boxes
• Approximately 15 inches of clearance beneath the coop

That space underneath becomes shaded run area where chickens can rest, scratch, and dust bathe.

Built for Backyard Conditions

• Plastic flashing above nesting box lids helps prevent water intrusion
• Roof panels include a heavy plastic liner for insulation and weatherproofing
• Each panel includes four diagonal wooden support pieces for added strength
• Strong wire mesh helps protect against predators
• Additional vents improve airflow inside the coop

It’s built to hold its structure—not loosen up over time.

Easy Access, Cleaning, and Daily Use

Daily chores are easier when the layout works with you.

• Nesting boxes open from the outside for egg collection
• Doors under the hen house provide access to the shaded space below
• Multiple run doors, including one at the end, make cleaning easier
• Helps simplify free-ranging and moving birds between spaces

Because if it’s hard to maintain, it won’t stay clean.

Assembly & Shipping Details

Assembly is simple and usually takes about 3 hours. It’s even easier with two people, and all you need is a power drill—every hole is already pre-drilled for you.

Your coop will arrive in 3 to 6 boxes, depending on the model. Most coops and runs ship with FedEx and typically arrive within 3–5 days after you place your order. The larger Brahma Coop ships on a pallet by freight (LTL) and usually arrives within 5–9 days, depending on your location.

Can You Paint This Coop?

Yes—you absolutely can. Each coop comes with two coats of water-based stain already applied, which helps protect the wood right out of the box.

If you’d prefer a different color or want to match your home or yard, you can paint over it without any issues. The surface is ready for paint, making it an easy and flexible option for customization.

Whether you keep the natural stained look or choose your own color, your coop will stay protected and look great in your space.
